“Last year, we deployed ADVA’s packet edge technology as we created the UK’s first full-fiber city. Through that process, we built up a great relationship with the ADVA team. So, when it came to taking our optical network to the next level, it made sense to turn to a partner whom we can rely on, who shares our ambitions and who we know will support us every step of the way,” said Tim Shaw, managing director, KCOM Wholesale and Networks. “With ADVA handling all elements of planning, project management and maintenance, we can concentrate on doing what we do best.

It’s going to give households and businesses across the region a major boost.”

Using ADVA FSP 3000 QuadFlex™ technology, the solution will transport 100Gbit/s data loads across the region without the need for signal regeneration. Also key is the ADVA FSP 3000 OpenFabric™ , which enables easy aggregation of lower-speed services.

The partnership guarantees that customers receive a network specifically tailored to their exact business requirements and backed up by 24/7 technical support.
